Hi to all this is the first time my XTX has been on the site, bought new in March for �5295 all in, never had a test ride just sorted Yamaha low rate finance and went to collect.

My first impresion was of joy it looked ace in it's bright red paint, that is until i rode it, having various bikes in 30 years i was very dissapointed in the harsh fueling at one point i nearly turned around to ask for my money back.

I made the 100m trip home in freezing rain and snow, (dont ya just love the UKs weather) wondering what i had done, i had been looking on here like most do for a month, so the surging was of no surprise just a lot worse than i expected, Kev came to the rescue with the Fuel mod, and the O2 eliminater, both were fitted asap, and have made things a ton better but i am still wanting it better if thats possible, when i asked a Yamaha tech i was told "all big singles do that" ahh ok pal.

Next came a set of Arrow cans, baffles in or out it still SHOUTS, they have great quality and light weight, Worry Brother supplied a Tail Tidy which is all you will ever need from a TT, so it now has a pert rear instead of a saggy rear.

Ebay supplied a pair of handgaurds but i think i am going back to standard bar ends etc, Renthal grey soft grips help me hold on.

DNA stage 1+2 filters from OTR have made a fair difference it now sounds great and has made a big difference in how it picks up, snorkel out to.

At this point i decided i better start riding it seeing as the weater had picked up, i then wanted a small screen to help reduce the wind in your face feeling,a Puig screen was fitted the small one thats fit behind the original headlight unit, it help keep wind of your body but gets me just on the helmet, but has made it better.

I am now enjoying messing about on the XTX i find anything over a 100m trip is enough the seat does try to part my butt in a not so nice way, i enjoy the power at low speed, the upright riding position, the noise is awsome, it turns in nice if under national speeds but feel it needs a tug over that, it behaves well two up too, to some it up, for me it does just what i want it to do, in a reasonable way, yes it could be better but it would cost a lot more, it gives me scope to modify it to make it personal and its mine get your own.

Looks like one of Worry Brothers TT's that mate.

I know he had a couple left a few months back. But I've forgotten his email address.
